 |
|
Every night, Logwatch tells me that smartd found the following errors:
(Not always exactly the same numbers, but it's always those attributes)
| Code: |
/dev/hda :
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 247
to 248
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 248
to 251
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 251
to 247
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 251
to 252
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 252
to 253
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 253
to 252
/dev/hdb :
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 7 Seek_Error_Rate changed from 100 to 200
1 Time(s): SMART Prefailure Attribute: 7 Seek_Error_Rate changed from 200 to 100
|
Is that anything I should worry about? |

Well, generally that would be bad, but I can't say for sure...
Paste this: 'smartctl -a /dev/hda', 'smartctl -a /dev/hdb'...

The tests you see are older tests that I ran when I was first setting up SMART, about a month ago I think. |

Well these are the things to watch for:
| Quote: | SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
SMART Error Log Version: 1
No Errors Logged |
So this seems just fine...
man smartctl
| Code: |
smartctl -t long /dev/hdc
Begin an extended self-test of drive /dev/hdc. You can issue this command on a running system. The results can be seen in the self-test log visible with the '-l selftest' option after it has completed. |
Anyway try running a extended self-test, and then look at smartctl -a again.
Good luck,
Pascal de Bruijn |

The tests are fine, but I still get those errors in my logs. Strange.
Well, thanks for your help. |
